What will be covered

The Additional Assessment Component (AAC) is a major change to LC Chemistry. For LC 2027, every teacher will be teaching this revised course for the first time.
Clear structure and guidance have never been more important. In this FREE live webinar, John O’Sullivan (Head of Chemistry, The Tuition Centre) will break down exactly what the AAC involves and how to approach it with clarity and confidence.
Based on the full six-stage investigation process and 200-mark assessment structure, this session will provide practical, classroom-ready guidance to help you support students effectively from Stage 1 right through to final submission.
In this webinar, John will: 
  • Clearly explain the six stages of the Chemistry in Practice Investigation
  • Outline realistic timeframes and teacher responsibilities at each stage 
  • Clarify authentication requirements and common pitfalls 
  • Break down the 200-mark allocation across Sections A–D 
  • Show how students can develop strong research questions, hypotheses and experimental designs 
  • Share practical examples of investigation ideas that align with the specification.
This session is designed to remove uncertainty, simplify the process, and give you a clear roadmap for implementing the AAC with confidence in your classroom.
